    Does anyone know why the Horizontal bar of the FD hovers on the top of the aircraft pointer the small yellow box in level flight (not crossed in the center)

    There is a setting in the ini file that sets this to the top of the box or level with the box.

    hello again, what I meant is that whenever the AP is Engaged and in manual flying I always have to keep the horizontal bar of the FD (Pitch comand) on the top of small yellow box to achieved the selected value on FCU, level flight or climb and descend. rather than centered (crossed inside the yellow box) in the Boeing GC this does not seem to be the case? it works fine

    Well, as far as the PM Airbus Type Suite is concerned, there are still many things to be fine-tuned, and of course, developed. Maybe this is one of them...

    Personally, I have not noticed this yet. Will pay attention on my next flight!

    Good answer is sure to come from PM support.
